The Fortnite Treasure Hunters loot pool brings back two shotguns, two pistols, two SMGs, the Hammer Assault Rifle and new choices for mobility. Epic has also unvaulted six fish and healing consumables for the mini-season starting 1 November 2026.
Not every returning gun is available on day one. Three more weapons are due later in the season, while the Golden Apple has received a healing change. Here’s exactly what Epic has listed for Battle Royale in the v43.00 update.
Fortnite Treasure Hunters loot pool: all unvaulted weapons
Nine weapons and utility items are confirmed as unvaulted at the beginning of the season. The table groups them by type so you can pick out your preferred range or movement option.
| Type | Unvaulted for November 1 |
|---|---|
| Shotguns | Sentinel Pump Shotgun, Auto Shotgun |
| Pistols | Flint-Knock Pistol, Sidearm Pistol |
| SMGs | Machine SMG, Tactical SMG |
| Assault rifle | Hammer Assault Rifle |
| Mobility and utility | Zipline Deployer, Overdrive Grenade |
The Sentinel Pump and Auto Shotguns cover close-range fights; the Machine and Tactical SMGs are alternatives for fast close-range fire. The Zipline Deployer and Overdrive Grenade are utility items, not guns. The list above is the confirmed launch group, rather than every weapon added over the whole month.

Returning fish and healing consumables
Epic lists Slurp Juice, Shield Fish, Jellyfish, Slurpfish, Hop Flopper and Spicy Fish as returning consumables. These are the six named in the unvaulted section of the notes.
Shield Fish and Jellyfish are familiar shield options, while Hop Flopper and Spicy Fish are useful for movement. Slurp Juice and Slurpfish offer healing. The update doesn’t give a revised numerical heal value for each returning consumable; the specific heal adjustment it does explain concerns the Golden Apple.
Fortnite Treasure Hunters loot pool: weapons arriving later
The Lever Action Shotgun, Frenzy Auto Shotgun and Flapjack Rifle are returning later in the season. That doesn’t put them in the November 1 launch-day selection.
Captain’s Days fall on November 1, 7, 12, 14 and 21. Epic’s launch notes don’t attach an exact date to every later unvault, although they do link the Frenzy Auto Shotgun to Oscar’s arrival on November 21. Our Captain’s Days guide covers the schedule.
Fortnite Treasure Hunters loot pool: available pocket items
Three pocket items are named: the Shockwave Grenade, Port-A-Bunker and Shield Bubble Jr. They’re listed separately from the nine unvaulted guns and utility items. Shockwave Grenades are useful for movement, while the other two offer cover or protection.
Ordinary Vending Machines are gone because Gold Bars have been vaulted. Pocket-O-Matics remain in Zero Build, but Epic hasn’t provided an item-by-item inventory for each device. Read our Gold Bars and Follower services guide for the full change.
Golden Apple: what changed in v43.00?
The Golden Apple now restores 40 Effective Health instead of 50 HP. If healing would exceed your maximum health, the remainder goes into your shield. It’s not simply a fixed 40 HP gain in every situation.
Its low-gravity effect also lasts slightly longer, and the chance of finding one in a Produce Box has increased a little. Epic doesn’t give a new drop-rate percentage.

What about new One Piece and A$AP Rocky weapons?
The island has new equipment alongside the returning guns, including Luffy’s Gum-Gum Fruit, Ace’s Flame-Flame Fruit, Zoro’s Three Sword Style and Usopp’s Slingshot. These new items aren’t part of Epic’s unvaulted weapon list. Our Treasure Hunters weapons guide covers the crossover gear.
A$AP Rocky’s Shock Rocket is a potential boss drop aboard The $.$. Rocky and is available in non-Competitive play. Our boss location guide explains that encounter and the Lil’ Flacko Sprite.
The Fortnite Treasure Hunters loot pool is the Battle Royale mini-season selection; it shouldn’t be assumed to match OG, Reload or competitive modes exactly. For launch, remember nine unvaulted weapons and tools, six returning consumables and three pocket items, with three more returning guns scheduled later.
